| You reduce the amount excluded from your gain per section 121 and then complete schedule D using an Unrecaptured Section 1250 Gain worksheet and the schedule D tax worksheet and tax table for the tax calculation. Example of the first part for a single person: Basis: 100,000 Amount realized: 350,000 Depreciation allowed after May 6, 1997: 50,000 Section 121 exclusion is 200,000 and the unrecaptured gain of 50,000flows through everything else. (But will probably be taxed at your marginal rate.)
